With Rowan being out of action for the foreseeable future, the Bludgeon Brothers are not very likely to cash in their rematch clause for the SmackDown Tag Team Championships against New Day anytime soon.
So General Manager Paige had to come up with an idea to determine the next challengers for the now 5 Times Tag Team Champions, and she decided to do another mini-tournament.
Paige announced in a video posted on her twitter account recently that they will be holding two triple threat tag team matches on the upcoming episodes of SmackDown Live.
The winner of these triple threats will go on to face each other in a regular tag match and whoever wins that, will earn the right to challenge the New Day for their title at the upcoming Hell In A Cell PPV:

The first triple threat that is expected to take place on this week’s episode of the show will see The Bar Sheamus & Cesaro battling against The Colons, Primo & Epico, and The Club Luke Gallows & Karl Anderson.
It’s worth mentioning here that this appears to be the Colons’ first on screen tag team match together since Primo suffered a knee injury and was put on the shelf back in June last year.
The participants for the second triple threat of this mini-tournament have not been revealed yet, but the company is most likely to announce it on the Blue Branded show this week.
